My very first rugby league game -
1994
Brookvale Oval
Manly v Dragons
61-0

I thought it was awesome, I had no idea football was so exciting!

I don't know if you're taking the piss or not. I suspect you are, but if not, the title of this thread actually makes no reference to specific competitions -it only says 'your first game of RL'. Plus, others have nominated their local suburban team as being their first live League experience, so anything goes I reckon!

as nuke says - the title says it all.

tool...

 

[Pigskin]

Guessing a little ... but think Easts vs Valleys @ Langlands Park, 1975.

Think we lost in a close one.

Oink !

 

[TeamSatan]

Leichhardt oval 1969...balmain vs newtown

Leichhardt was an oval not rectangle....wooden seats around the fence...newtown were called the "bluebags".

I remember going to see the bears play newtown at Henson park about the same time ...he parked the car at the fence and we sat on the bonnet and watched the game.

Those were the days..

My first was State Of Origin 1 in 2004, Shaun Timmins kicked the winning field goal and all the NSW supporters high fiving and hugging made me want to go to many more.

You're lying and you know it. Only Queenslanders are that passionate about Origin :roll:

1993

Raiders vs Cronulla


a thrashing if ever i saw one.

 

[stupidhumour]

First game under lights at Caltex Field v the Tigers - can't remember the year...help

Anyway, they got up...

 

[Raidersrawesome]

Watched Newtown vs Cronulla at Henson , not sure if it was 82 , score was 14 - 0 I think.

 

[Sir Biffo]

Penrith vs St George at Penrith Park in 92 I think. St George got up, Goldthorpe carved up.

 

[redvscotty]

Not asure when it was but it was at seagulls stadium, and it was seagulls vs broncos, seagulls got up right on the full time buzzer with a 50m or so try.

awesome.

my sister had a sherbet stick and put it all over the bloke in front of us when she was cheering. we laughed dad told us to not worry about it.

 

[Snoz]

think it was wests v souths at campbelltown around 1989

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

St George vs Norths at Kogarah Oval in the late 80's. Pissing down rain all game too on a Friday Night

 

[Lycon79]

Brothers V Wynumn at the true home of RL Lang Park

 

[Mick_63]

Wests vs Manly at Lidcome oval,1977

 

[Digeze]

Dad used to take to the Magpies games all the time in the early 80's. The only thing i remember about them is playing on the hill with the other kids and racing down to the fence to shake the magpie mascots hand.

First specific game that i can remember was a few years later, Tigers Vs Magpies at Leichhardt. Went with family friends that were Balmain supporters while dad and i were Maggies. Balmain won 40-0, we sat in the grandstand up the end of the ground which is now defunct. Ellery Hanley was playing for the Magpies and got massive boos everytime he touched the ball (being a former Balmain player).

Heh, 40-0, apart from a couple of Magpie semi-finals in the mid 90's and the grandfinal win in '05, that's been the typical theme of things for me as a rugby league supporter

 

[Moffo]

1987 dogs v penrith at penrith park

wof woof

 

[ferntree footy]

Some SOO in Melbourne but I really count my first game where I gave a care as Storm vs Norths(?) first Storm game in Melbourne 1998. Signed up with the Storm and never renewed my AFL club membership.
